Hydrologist at AER working on GIS and remote sensing for groundwater-dependent ecosystem mapping. Collaborating with the AGS and applying advanced hydrology knowledge for Alberta's oil sands regions.
Responsibilities
Assess hydrological interactions between groundwater and surface water in Alberta’s oil sands regions and process remote sensing datasets to support groundwater-dependent ecosystem mapping.
Apply remote sensing expertise to process and interpret multispectral, thermal, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery and related derivative products in support of hydrologic assessment and groundwater dependent ecosystem mapping.
Integrate data and knowledge on surficial and Quaternary geology, and hydrogeological mapping to support delineation of groundwater-dependent ecosystems.
Prepare and deliver presentations and reports for the AGS, external collaborators, and project stakeholders.
Compile, organize and manage data from a variety of sources (e.g., remote sensing, hydrometric, precipitation, chemistry/isotope, and groundwater monitoring data) to support project objectives and deliverables.
Create groundwater-dependent ecosystem maps at publication quality with various climate, surface water, and groundwater related information in an ArcGIS environment.
Requirements
B.Sc. in remote sensing, hydrology, engineering, geography, or a related discipline; an M.Sc. or Ph.D. is considered an asset.
5-7 years of relevant industry, academia, or government engineering, remote-sensing or geoscience experience.
Prior experience quantifying groundwater-surface water interaction using remote sensing, isotope hydrology, field-based methods, or analytical techniques.
Possess a strong working knowledge of remote sensing methods and data sources.
Knowledge of the hydrology, hydrogeology, and geology of the Alberta oil sands areas is considered an asset.
Proficient in ArcGIS, geostatistical analysis, and image processing software.
Familiarity with a variety of programming languages (Python, R, Google Earth Engine, ENVI).
Experience with numerical and analytical solutions in hydrology and associated software.
Strong written and oral communication skills to communicate moderately complex earth observation concepts, practices, or approaches to scientific audiences.
Collaborative team player who values developing relationships and sharing ideas and knowledge with others.
